Hello, I had a consult with my trusted board certified PS. I am not wanting a tummy tuck. I was thinking lipo because it shows more results than CoolSculpting. Doctor advised Vaser for hips and outer thighs but not my stomach-3 kids and laxity and would require a TT. How many inches can I loose? Any skin discoloration? I'm fair skin and I also get Varicose Veins and do not want to make worse and get treatment annually. I was told pain is about 10 days. In my 50's. Thank you . :)
Answer: VASER Lipo VASER Lipo is a minimally invasive body-contouring procedure, melting the unwanted fat in your body, using ultrasound technology. The Gold Standard for superior liposuction results requires use of the advanced technology of ultrasound assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I perform full body liposuction cases every week. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently resulted in outstanding liposuction outcomes. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of degree of excess fat by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. If skin redundancy is observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee

Answer: Second opinion I think your surgeon is correct about getting a tummy tuck. There are four variables we look at making an abdominal assessment. These are skin laxity, excess subcutaneous fat, muscle separation from previous pregnancies and excess visceral or intra-abdominal fat. My best guess is you have all four of them in equal amounts. A tummy tuck primarily treats skin laxity and muscle separation but also by stretching the skin thins out the subcutaneous fat layer on the front of the abdomen. Weight loss will improve the results and weight loss before your procedure will make you a better candidate. Liposuction on the lower extremities especially in older patients with skin laxity often gives results far less than patience and hope for. This is especially true in the upper inner thigh. It’s also true on the back half of the outer thigh. True saddlebags on the outer or outer front part of The thigh typically respond very well. In regards to your abdomen or your torso well done Liposuction is the quintessential correct procedure. Recovery typically takes two weeks and you should expect the first three days to be severely intense. I would encourage patient to consider spending the first 24 hours having a full-time nurse like in a recovery suite. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
